“So do you just saunter around in your long brown coat and tight suit looking for trouble?”
The Doctor raised an eyebrow as Martha looked around the planet he had called, Serpentes. Land of the snakes or something weird like that. The past couple of places they had been trouble seemed to just swarm around the Time Lord.
“I'll have you know trouble looks for me Martha Jones.” he started flashing her a grin as he said quietly, “Besides where would be the fun in anything if it didn't involve the slightest bit of running?”
She had to agree. If there was not even the slightest bit of danger, his life must be so boring, just wondering around, no one to save, no choices to make. She looked up at him as he walked down the dusty path, looking at the buildings that once shone silver in the sun of the planet that died out years ago.
“If you had a choice... would you carry on doing all of this?”
“All of what?”
She rolled his eyes. Typical answer. She should be used to this by now.
“You know, running around, waiting for danger to fall at your feet, to save the day?”
The Doctor walked his eyes never looking at her, but she could see the sadness and disbelief written all over the Time Lords face.
“Like I said, trouble and danger finds me and I don't save the day... people die because of me, how could that be known as saving anything.”
Martha stopped him, turning the tall man to face her. She stared into the ageing eyes, her eyes filled with a kind of sympathy. She knew he would not appreciate it, he never appreciated sympathy or pity but she could not help herself.
“Planets look to you to save their worlds, everyone knows that danger is just a pastime for you. Looking out for planets in all the Universes beyond this one is what you do for a living. Looking down apon them and coming to their aid when they call... of course you can turn up a few hundred years late but you still come for them.”
She was right. Danger and trouble were just a pastime for him... he knew he could not change it now. But he was not quite sure he really wanted to. It would take all of the fun from his long lasting life he lived.
Danger was just a pastime for him, but it was a good one. It made him feel alive just for a second and for that second he enjoyed the adrenaline.
He always enjoyed the feeling of the adrenaline rush.
